Lots going on the last few weeks. Work, writing, travel. But the biggest of all was that I finally dumped my Palm Centro, which I’ve actively loathed since the day I got it, for a shiny new HTC Hero. Now this is a 21st-century device. I’m still sorting out all that I can do with it, but none of it is the hard slog that it was with the Palm.
There’s a blog post about interconnectedness brewing in the back of my head, partially inspired by the new device. Something about the parallel between the ever-denser connections between people and the connections between neurons in the brain. I know, I know, it’s been done. Which is why I haven’t done it yet; I’m trying to come up with a new angle.
Actually, I’m considering starting up a separate blog for my wonkier philosophical ideas. There’s a lot of weirdness floating around in my head, and somehow this doesn’t seem like quite the place for it. I still own verystrangeloops.com, but I may buy a new name instead. We’ll see.
Anyway, that’s it for now, methinks; I know it’s not much, but it’s late. Tomorrow we go to Harbin once again (only for one night, alas), and so sleep is badly needed. We’ve both been running at full speed for the last few weeks, so even this short of a break will be welcome.
